Neue Schule bits have been ergonomically designed using the latest technology to produce high performance superior bits for all disciplines and levels of riding. Neue Schule bits are made with Neue Schule Salox Gold which is a high copper alloy used for its high thermal conductivity and anti-tarnishing properties; Salox Gold quickly reaches body temperature and so encourages relaxation and acceptance of the bit. The Neue Schule Tranz Angled Lozenge Eggbutt features the Tranz Angled Lozenge which is set at a unique 20 º angle that activates more feel over the tongue. The lozenge contours to the thicker, less sensitive part of the horse\\\'s tongue allowing clear and defined aids to be given through the reins without abusing the tongue or interfering with the palate. The bit is slightly curved so it takes up less room between the tongue and the upper palate; the oval profile subtly depresses the horse\\\'s tongue and allows for a larger upper airway which enhances the horse\\\'s ability to breathe and swallow more easily. The Neue Schule Tranz Angled Lozenge Eggbutt is ideal for horse\\\'s that need the stability offered by a fixed ring bit and the Tranz Lozenge mouthpiece means that communication, feel and response is not lost as with traditional eggbutt snaffles.
